My Off Limits Grumpy Professor

Rate this book
She teaches my class… and stars in every filthy thought I have.

Moving back home was supposed to be finish school, get my life together. Falling for her? That wasn’t part of the plan.

Sidney Wagner is fierce, brilliant, and heartbreakingly gorgeous. She’s the woman who lectures in my classroom by day and lives next door by night. And every forbidden look we share sets my soul on fire.

She says we can’t. That the stakes are too high. But I see the way her gaze lingers, the way her breath hitches when we’re alone. We’re playing with fire, and it’s only a matter of time before we’re consumed.

Because this isn’t just a crush—it’s an obsession. And I’ll risk everything to have her… even if it means we both burn.

I could barely finish it. I got bored part of the way through.

Nope. Not for me. Age gap stories are fine with me. I actually really enjoy them. This one, not so much. Sidney was a predator and I did not like her one bit. Jessi was 17 and a student the first time around. I almost DNF.

Creepy Premise

20 year older professor taught a young underage girl at some seminars. They ‘fell in love’ then on her 18th birthday, they consummated that ‘love’.

Reads like a groomer. Professor is a pedophile.

2 years later, she’s once again in a position of power and their ‘undeniable lust’ draws the two back together.

Read 1/5th of the book, it’s really not worth it.

It’s just creepy.

The tension in this book is so good from the very beginning! The library scene was so hot. I think it's a fantasy a lot of people have wanted to come true!

I love when Sidney opens up about realizing she was gay when she was younger, but felt like she had to lie about who she was to make her family happy. It's the story of a lot of later in life lesbians, or just women in general who feel too scared to come out for a multitude of reasons when they know their truth but are terrified of repercussions.

Falling in love and then being ripped apart because of horrible lies only made them stronger in the end. Such a cute age gap romance!

Why!!! I am so frustrated with how the author chooses to shift the direction of the story with frustrating narratives. I was actually enjoying this one after the last one but now this is one just pushed me to my end. I had hoped to read the few other books that I found on the Off Limits but just can't! The ending can't justify the story choice.

I liked it

It was a good story and well told. However, I really need someone to explain something to me. If both characters were feminine and described as wearing dresses and skirts often, why was Sydney wearing a suit at the wedding. I'm sorry, I just don't buy it

Love overcomes what life throws at you.

The book is beautifully written. The professor and the student, age gap friendship and love affair with all the ups and downs life throws at you love overcomes. Beautiful!

Second-chance

I'm not ashamed to admit that all these tropes drew me in. It was worth it. Also there was some nice little drama there at the end that shook things up a bit. Not bad for a quick read

Meh

This author must have many friends reviewing her books. For all the talk of peer reviews and the importance of editing, this book could have used more of it.

Different

This book was different then what I expected..I didn't except the characters to hook up as early they do in the story but it worked and was a good book.

Please no Virtual Voice

Virtual voice distracted from this story. The grammatical and flatness of the delivery undermined the story. I should have just read the book.

DNF

Couldn’t get down with the writing. It’s all over the place and very repetitive. Sex scenes written very poorly. DNF

Okay story.

It was good, okay-written love story with an age-gap and complicated student-professor relationship. In a book description says that one of the characters is Dr. Camille Voss which is not true. The main characters are a writer/professor Sidney Wagner and a student Jessica Holland. I was just surprised that it wasn’t the same name.
